Using 'default' for IN parameters in procedures

Hello,

I am creating a procedure in a workspace in the HANA Development Perspective. The procedure is being converted from MSSQL to HANA. I need to use defaults for some of the IN parameters as it is intended that they will be optional parameters. See below:

-- Required Parameters

IN ExactMatch smallint,          --Applies only on FamName matches
RecentDataOnly smallint,         --Look for StopDate IS NULL

-- Optional Parameters

ActiveOnly smallint default '-1',          --StsCd=1 (Active), 2 (Inactive), etc.

IncludePatientsOnly smallint default '-1',

IncludeGuarantorsOnly smallint default '-1',

FunctionName varchar(253) default ' ',

FamName varchar(254) default ' ',            --Can specify this or @Soundex, but not both.

Soundex char(4) default ' ',                 --FamNameSndxText

GivenName varchar(254) default ' ',

MiddleInitial varchar(254) default ' ',

Wheh I try to activate the procedure via the workspace it does not seem to like the 'default'. The error shows:

Syntax error: "default" is incorrect or misplaced.

If I try to create the procedure via the SQL Console, there is no such issue and it creates without any problems.

I am on SPS6 environment.

Is this type of coding supported in the workspace or is there another way I can code this?

Regards and Thanks,

Neil.
